The vineyard is carefully tended to in order to obtain grapes of a impeccable quality, ripe, healthy and concentrated. The planting density is high (5000 to 6500 vines per ha) for the most recent plantations. The vines are trained in high trellises to guarantee surfaces high foliar and yields are controlled (less than 45 hl/ha). grapes are harvested manually, at perfect maturity, and transported to the cellar in the cellar. The different grape varieties are vinified separately, respecting their own characteristics. Carignan and Syrah are vatted in whole bunches and vinified in maceration carbonic acid for 15 days. The end of alcoholic fermentation is carried out at low temperature. The Grenache is destemmed and its duration of maceration reaches 3 weeks. The wines are racked at the end of alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, then placed in Bordeaux barrels of 225 liters, for a maturing period of 10 to 12 months.

The dress is a beautiful garnet color, intense and brilliant. From the nose emerges an aromatic bouquet complex, where blackberry, blueberry and cherry are mixed with pleasant notes of liquorice and undergrowth. The attack on the palate is ample, fluid and suave. Present, but round and melted, the tannins support delicate aromas of red and black berries. Fruity and balanced, its finish lingers in the mouth on subtle woody notes.

Keep away from sunlight and at a constant temperature

To be enjoyed at 16°C, with red meats grilled, game or mature cheeses.
